contents For nonlinear Cosserat elasticity, we consider multiscale methods in this paper. In particular, we explore the generalized multiscale finite element method (GMsFEM) to solve an isotropic Cosserat problem with strain-limiting property (ensuring bounded linearized strains even under high stresses). Such strain-limiting Cosserat model can find potential applications in solids and biological fibers. However, Cosserat media with naturally rotational degrees of freedom, nonlinear constitutive relations, high contrast, and heterogeneities may produce challenging multiscale characteristics in the solution, and upscaling by multiscale methods is necessary. Therefore, we utilize the offline and residual-based online (adaptive or uniform) GMsFEM in this context while handling the nonlinearity by Picard iteration. Through various two-dimensional experiments (for perforated, composite, and stochastically heterogeneous media with small and big strain-limiting parameters), our numerical results show the approaches' convergence, efficiency, and robustness. In addition, these results demonstrate that such approaches provide good accuracy, the online GMsFEM gives more accurate solutions than the offline one, and the online adaptive strategy has similar accuracy to the uniform one but with fewer degrees of freedom.
